(TSXV: WEB) (OTCQX: WEGYF) (FRA: PUQ) ("Westbridge", "Westbridge Renewable" or the "Company") a leading developer of utility-scale renewable energy and energy infrastructure, announces its intention to consolidate the Company's common shares.
The Company announces that its Board of Directors has approved a consolidation of the Company's common shares (the "Common Shares") on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation Common Share for every four (4) pre-consolidation Common Shares (the "Consolidation"), subject to approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange" or the "TSXV").
The Consolidation is being undertaken in order to position the Company for broader institutional investor participation, enhance trading liquidity, and support its long-term capital markets strategy.

The effective date of the Consolidation, along with the new CUSIP and ISIN numbers, will be announced in a subsequent news release once TSXV approval has been obtained.
